COMBNATION G-NETG CONYIAT AND DE@ CQNB'UCTGR REQ-'JTW CES nomination led 'ebruaivy .T0 all fw hom may con-oem Be it known that ROBERT W. Remonta, a Citizen of the United States, residing at San Diego, in the county of San Diego and State of California, have invented a certain new and useful Combination Magneto Contact and @ii qdouduotor for Engine Granit Cases, of which the ioilowii'lg is speefi cation.

My invention relates to an appa, ladapted to serve as magneto Contact ,.i'i for Conducting oil from one end crank Case to the other through a by-pass'outside of said crank case fopei'utive in connection with the magneto and the tiy-Wheei, and objects of my invention are: First, 'to pto- Vide an apparatus which mi ne ieadiiy a@ plied to a Ford crank case Y Y e oii fri'in the transmission end ot th e Case to the opposite end; second, to 'nrovief such an apparatus portion of si.' substituted for the Couveutionai mag.. .l Contact; third, to provide au apparatus oi Wheel forces the oircuiation of the oil; fourth, to provide an apparatus of this class which combines the magneto eontaet with the oii conductor; and fifth, to provide an apparatus of this dass which is very simple and economical of construction, durr ble, easy to instail., easy to operate, and is appiieahle for use in connection with the eouventionai Ford automobile engine crank Case..

W ith these and other objects in view as will appear hereinafter my invention corn siste of certain novel features of construe tion, combination and arrangement of parte andportions as Will he hereinafter described in detail and partieuiariy set forth in the appended claims, reference being had to the accompanying drawins, and to the Characters of reference theieon `which forni a part of this application, in which:
